"Good work, Ira," he whinnied, taking the poppy seeds and putting them in Esther's mouth. "Chew them slowly," he whispered. "They will help with the pain." When he looked down, he discovered that most of her wounds had stopped bleeding. She was going to be okay. "You can sleep now." he muttered, giving her a final tap on the withers with his muzzle before turning to Ira again. "Watch her, and if she gets worse, call me."
With that, he walked a few yards away and stood at Sprite's feet, his gaze worried.
Esther slowly chewed on the poppy seeds, her jaw aching from the kick the mare delivered to it.
